Okay

So experimenting with this my results don't agree - without the hunk
get_maintainer.pl falls back to git and s-o-bs to pick up the Aspeed
maintainer:

With the hunk:

    $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/pinctrl/aspeed/pinctrl-aspeed.c
    Joel Stanley <    joel@jms.id.au    > (maintainer:ARM/ASPEED MACHINE SUPPORT)
    Linus Walleij <    linus.walleij@linaro.org    > (maintainer:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)
    linux-gpio@vger.kernel.org     (open list:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)

Without the hunk:

    $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl drivers/pinctrl/aspeed/pinctrl-aspeed.c
    Linus Walleij <    linus.walleij@linaro.org    > (maintainer:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)
    Joel Stanley <    joel@jms.id.au    > (commit_signer:1/1=100%)
    Andrew Jeffery <    andrew@aj.id.au    > (commit_signer:1/1=100%,authored:1/1=100%,added_lines:498/498=100%)
    linux-gpio@vger.kernel.org     (open list:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)
    linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org     (open list)

So removing git as a fallback Joel isn't listed as a relevant
maintainer despite the glob:

    $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-git-fallback drivers/pinctrl/aspeed/pinctrl-aspeed.c
    Linus Walleij <    linus.walleij@linaro.org    > (maintainer:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)
    linux-gpio@vger.kernel.org     (open list:PIN CONTROL SUBSYSTEM)
    linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org     (open list)

I expect it's the case that the globbing doesn't match directories like
the hunk in question does with its trailing '/'. However, given we will
likely do something different in light of Arnd's suggestion it probably
doesn't matter.

Cheers,

Andrew
